This special topic poll, conducted August 14-20, 2006, is
part of a continuing series of monthly polls that solicit public
opinion on various political and social issues. The focus of this data
collection was on the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Part
1, FEMA Counties, contains data from a sample of 501 adults living in
counties in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama that were designated
as Hurricane Katrina disaster areas. Part 2, Orleans Parish Including
Oversamples, contains data on respondents living in Orleans Parish,
Louisiana, including oversamples of 160 respondents contacted via
landline telephones, and 120 respondents contacted via cell phones.
Respondents were asked to rate the recovery efforts of federal, state,
and local governments with respect to Hurricane Katrina, and how much
trust and confidence they had in the federal government and the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) ability to respond to
another disaster. Opinions were collected on whether Hurricane Katrina
was the result of global climate change or just a severe weather
event. Information was collected about the damage caused to
respondents' residence and personal property, as well as the severity
of the damage, how much of the losses were insured, and whether
recovery had already occurred. Respondents were asked to rate the
impact Hurricane Katrina had had on their life, whether they suffered
a long-term negative impact on their finances, health, and emotional
well-being, and whether any friends or family members were seriously
injured or killed as as a result of the hurricane. A series of
questions asked respondents to rate the job of groups involved with
assisting recovery, such as the the United States Small Business
Administration, state relief agencies, and insurance companies. Views
were sought concerning whether respondents' trust in the government
and fellow man was affected by the hurricane, how much they worried
about another hurricane occurring, and how much extra stress was
created by the possibility of another hurricane. Additional topics
addressed whether race and poverty affected the recovery effort, and
whether problems with the relief effort were an indication of racial
inequality in the United States. Demographic variables include sex,
age, race, education level, household income, political party
affiliation, political philosophy, employment status, marital status,
and type of residential area (e.g., urban or rural).

This special topic poll sought the views of New York City
residents on the upcoming 1997 New York City mayoral election.
Respondents were asked to give their opinions of Mayor Rudolph
Giuliani and his policies and to comment on whether their quality of
life had changed since Giuliani took office in January 1994. Those
queried were asked for whom they would vote, given Republican
candidate Giuliani and possible Democratic candidates Fernando
Ferrer, Ruth Messinger, Al Sharpton, and Sal Albanese. Respondents
were asked which of the following problems presented the greatest
challenge to the city of New York: crime, the job market, the
economy, race relations, education, poverty, housing, or changes in
the welfare system. An additional question addressed the 1993 New
York City mayoral election between Republican candidate Giuliani and
Democratic candidate David Dinkins. Background information on
respondents includes age, race, ethnicity, sex, education, political
party, political orientation, religion, voter registration and
participation history, and family income.

This poll, conducted September 7-12, 2006, is part of a
continuing series of monthly polls that solicit public opinion on
various political and social issues. Respondents were asked which
issues would be most important in their vote for Congress later that
year, which party they trusted more to handle health care issues, how
satisfactory the quality and total cost of health care was, and
whether or not the number of Americans without insurance was a
critical problem. Information was collected on the status of the
respondents' own health insurance, including whether they were insured
or not, what type of insurance they had, and how long they had been
uninsured. Views were sought on whether health care premiums had been
rising, why they were rising, how it had affected their household, and
how job loss would affect the status and cost of health insurance. A
series of questions asked whether new treatments should always be
covered, whether efforts should go toward reducing health care costs
or reducing the number of Americans without insurance, and whether
there should be a universal health insurance program. The respondents
rated the effectiveness of the current health insurance system, and
they were asked under what conditions a universal health insurance
program would be supported. They were also asked their opinions on
whether or not employers should be obligated to provide coverage, and
whether tax breaks should be offered to companies. Additional topics
addressed terminally ill patients and the expense of keeping them
alive. Demographic variables include sex, age, race, education level,
household income, political party affiliation, political philosophy,
employment status, and marital status.

This special topic poll, conducted January 13-15, 1997, is
part of a continuing series of monthly polls that solicit public
opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social
issues. This data collection was undertaken to assess public opinion
prior to President Bill Clinton's second-term inauguration as
president of the United States. Respondents were asked to give their
opinions of President Clinton and his handling of the first term of
his presidency, whether he would do a better or worse job in his
second term in office, whether they approved of his choices for
Cabinet and other top positions in his administration, and what the
nature of his relationship with Congress should be in his second
term. Views were sought on whether President Clinton had made progress
toward reducing unemployment and improving education during his first
term, and whether he would make substantial progress in these areas
during his second term. Respondents rated the most important issue
facing the country, whether they were better or worse off financially
compared to four years ago, whether they approved of the way Congress
was handling its job, whether they expected Congress to do a better
job in the next two years, and whether they trusted the Clinton
administration or the Republicans in Congress to handle the main
problems the nation would face over the next few years. Other
questions asked whether respondents approved of the way Hillary
Clinton was handling her job as first lady and the amount of influence
she held over her husband, and whether she should play a greater role
in her husband's second administration. A series of questions asked
about recent allegations involving President Clinton, including
Whitewater, the Democratic National Campaign Committee's acceptance of
foreign contributions, and former Arkansas state employee Paula
Jones's sexual harassment charges, and whether they would interfere
with his ability to serve as president. Additional topics addressed
what actions the government should take to protect the long-term
financial stability of Social Security and the Medicare health system
and the overall level of ethics and honesty in politics and the
federal government. Demographic variables include sex, age, race,
education level, household income, political party affiliation,
political philosophy, and voter participation history.

This data collection focuses on the federal budget deficit
and on issues dealing with the rich and the poor in America.
Respondents were asked if they approved of the way George Bush,
Democrats in Congress, and Republicans in Congress were handling the
the federal budget deficit, and who was more to blame for the larger
deficit. Additionally, respondents were asked how much money it takes
to be rich in the United States, whether they would want to be rich,
how likely it was that they would ever be rich or poor, whether the
percentage of Americans who are rich was increasing, and whether they
respected and admired rich people. Other questions asked respondents
if they characterized rich people as more likely to be honest,
snobbish, intelligent, and a variety of other traits, whether
respondents would be more or less likely to vote for a candidate who
was a millionaire/self-made millionaire, and which political party
better represented the interests of poor, rich, and middle class
people. Background information on respondents includes political
alignment, 1988 presidential vote choice, registered voter status,
education, age, religion, social class, marital status, number of
people in the household, labor union membership, employment status,
race, income, sex, and state/region of residence.

The Afrobarometer is a comparative series of public attitude surveys that collects and disseminates data regarding Africans' views on democracy, governance, the economy, civil society, and related issues. The data are collected from nationally representative samples in face-to-face interviews in the language of the respondent's choice. Standard topics for the Afrobarometer include attitudes toward and evaluations of democracy, governance and economic conditions, political participation, national identity, and social capital. In addition, Round 5 surveys included special modules on taxation; gender issues; crime, conflict and insecurity; globalization; and social service delivery. The surveys also collect a large set of socio-demographic indicators such as age, gender, education level, poverty level, language and ethnicity, and religious affiliation, as well as political party affiliation. Afrobarometer Round 5 surveys were implemented in 35 countries. This particular data collection was concerned with the attitudes and opinions of the citizens of Ghana, and also includes a number of "country-specific questions," many of which are oil-related, designed specifically for the Ghana survey.

Bicol Multipurpose Survey (BMS), 1978

The Bicol Multipurpose Survey (BMS) was designed to assess
the impact of the Bicol River Basin Development Project (BRBDP) on one
of the poorest regions in the Philippines. Using data collected from
both semi-urban and rural areas of the Bicol Region, the BMS sought to
examine the impact not only of the various development projects of the
BRBDP such as irrigation, electricity, and road repair, but also the
economic, social, and health issues faced by the residents of the
Bicol Region. The survey gathered data for 17 project areas and 3
cities in the provinces of Albay, Camarines Sur, and
Sorsogon. Household-level information (Part 1) covers household
characteristics, physical environment, income and expenditures,
distance from schools, and respondents' feelings about household
conditions and the progress of the barangay in which they lived (a
barangay is a political subdivision equivalent to a village in rural
areas and to a neighborhood in urban areas). Information on topics
such as attitudes about foods during pregnancy, infant and child care,
prenatal care, community involvement, and work history are contained
in a separate Mothers Data file (Part 2). The individual-level data
(Parts 3-5) contain demographic information such as age, sex, and
education, and include time spent on household and occupational
tasks. Information was collected from persons as young as 6 years of
age, but was coded for individuals 15 years and older for tasks such
as selling, food preparation, farm work, raising livestock and
poultry, and the type and amount of fishing. Morbidity data from over
17,000 individuals are also included. The Household Production files
(Parts 6-11) cover agriculture and business, crop production, rice
farming, raising livestock and poultry, type of fishing done, and
quantity of fish caught. Also included are income figures, assets, and
liabilities. The Barangay Survey (Part 12) examines the physical
aspects of the barangay and the use of social services in the area to
determine the impact of the BRBDP and outside influences. The barangay
captain or official records provided information on the physical
characteristics, community services, medical services, social
services, sanitation, and educational systems available within the
barangay. The Extension Workers Survey (Part 13) asked 324 workers
about their knowledge and activities regarding agricultural practices
such as fertilizer use, pest and disease control, and other aspects of
planting and transplanting. Through the Medical Practitioners Survey
(Part 14), 426 practitioners were asked questions on their education
and training, general health knowledge and experience, and knowledge
and attitudes about birth control. Data collected in 1978, 1983, and
1994 can be used individually or merged together on a unique household
identifier found in Part 15 (with the exception of the Medical
Practitioners and Extension Workers data).

The 1983 Bicol Multipurpose Survey (BMS) was designed to
revisit the residents of the Bicol Region of the Philippines who were
surveyed during 1978 in an effort to review the progress of the Bicol
River Basin Development Project (BRBDP). The Bicol Multipurpose Survey
(BMS) was designed to assess the impact of the BRBDP on one of the
poorest regions in the Philippines. Using data collected from both
semi-urban and rural areas of the Bicol Region, the BMS sought to
examine the impact not only of the various development projects of the
BRBDP such as irrigation, electricity, and road repair, but also the
economic, social, and health issues faced by the residents of the
Bicol Region. The survey gathered data for 17 project areas and 3
cities in the provinces of Albay, Camarines Sur, and Sorsogon. The
1983 BMS follows the same design as BICOL MULTIPURPOSE SURVEY (BMS),
1978: [PHILIPPINES] (ICPSR 6878), with the data being organized into
31 "blocks" or series of questions. A total of 1,901 households were
surveyed in 1983, most of which were previously surveyed in 1978. An
additional replacement sample of 420 was drawn from the 1978 rosters
for the 1983 survey. Respondents were again asked about income,
employment, education, health status, and health services.
Additionally, the 1983 survey gathered extensive information on
fishing, business expenses, and small business activities, along with
fertility, pregnancy, and mortality histories. Due to time and cost
considerations, detailed questions on credit, some health-related
items regarding beliefs, chronic illnesses, and breast-feeding, and
detailed questions on crops were not included in the 1983 BMS.
Section I, Household Data (Parts 1-32), focused on background
information, transportation, environment, morbidity, and health
services. Information was gathered about people living in the
household six months prior to the survey as well as people who had
left the household five years prior to the survey. Expenditure data on
schooling were gathered for individuals 6-30 years of age. Marriage
and pregnancy histories were elicited from women aged 15-49 along with
family planning and birth interval information. Section II,
Agriculture/Income/Labor Data (Parts 33-87), posed questions on
employment, wages, and hired labor for men, women, and children aged
6-15. Data on coconut, sugar cane, and abaca crop production were also
gathered, along with information about livestock and poultry, and
extensive data were collected about fishing activities. Fishing boat
owners were interviewed, along with capture fisherman who fished both
inland and marine waters. The Barangay Survey (Parts 88-96) provided
information about characteristics of the barangay in which the
respondent lived (a barangay is a political subdivision equivalent to
a village in rural areas and to a neighborhood in urban areas),
services available in the community, types of social services or
practitioners, the availability of public utilities and
transportation, different types of organizations present within the
barangay, employment conditions, and environmental sanitation
conditions.

r ideas about necessities of the good life, their opinion as to whether they could rely on anyone outside the home for certain problems, and their views on social exclusion, poverty, and the state of the area in which they live within their country. In addition, the respondents were asked about their response to the poor or socially excluded, which entities provide the most help to these individuals versus who should do so, the reasons why people are poor or socially excluded, as well as the extent of social disparities in their country and government’s role in reducing these disparities. For the eighth major area of focus, social and political participation and integration, respondents were asked about their participation in social, community, political, and advocacy groups or organizations. For the ninth major area of focus, employment, unemployment, and quality of work, the survey queried respondents about their current and past employment, employment status, and to describe their job. In addition, respondents identified the average hours they worked per week and stressors arising from their current job situation. For the last major area of focus, regional mobility, respondents were asked about moving in the last ten years, including how often, where, and why or why not, the prospects of moving to a different location in the next five years, the factors that would influence relocation, and whether moving would improve job prospects. In addition, the survey queried respondents about their willingness to live in another European country where the language spoken differs from their native language. Demographic variables include age, gender, marital status, age when stopped full-time education, occupation, income, source of household income, main income earner, number of people living in the household, ownership of durable goods, type and surface of area residence, type of community, and region of residence.

The Carolina Abecedarian (ABC) Project and the Carolina Approach to Responsive Education (CARE) projects consist of two consecutive longitudinal studies on the effectiveness of early childhood educational intervention for children at high risk for developmental delays and school failure. Combined, the two studies test the hypothesis that child care, home visit, and home school resource interventions can enhance cognitive and academic outcomes for children at risk for school failure due to factors such as poverty, low maternal IQ, or low parental education. These studies provide the only experimental data regarding the efficacy of child care interventions that began during early infancy and lasted until the child entered kindergarten. In addition, the data allow for tests of the efficacy of intervention during the primary grades.
Research hypotheses include:
Within this high-risk sample, early cumulative risk will be negatively associated with young adult educational outcomes, employment outcomes, avoidance of teen parenthood, and avoidance of criminal behavior.
Early intervention will moderate the effects of risk such that the effects of increased risk would be weaker for those who received the intervention than for those who did not.
The early home environment would mediate any found effects for early risk and that early educational intervention would moderate the effects of the early home environment such that the effects of a poor-quality home environment would be weaker for those who received treatment compared to those who did not.
Further information can be found on the Carolina Abecedarian Project Web site.

This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys
that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other
political and social issues. Respondents were asked to give their
opinions of the 2004 presidential campaign, including whom they likely
would vote for and their level of support for that candidate.
Questions were also posed regarding candidates' handling of or ability
to handle current issues, such as foreign policy, the economy, and the
situation in Iraq. Opinions of other national figures -- e.g., Rudolph
Giuliani, John McCain, and Arnold Schwarzenegger -- were solicited as
well. Additional survey questions queried respondents' perceptions of
the state of the economy, the war on terrorism, stem cell research,
and government-issued warnings of potential terrorist attacks.
Background information includes voter registration status, political
party leanings, sex, religious preference, education, age, ethnicity,
and income.

This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys
that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other
political and social issues. Respondents were asked to give their
opinions on Bill Clinton and his handling of his job as president,
foreign policy, welfare, and the economy. They were also asked to
identify the most important thing Republicans in Congress should
concentrate on and the United States' most important economic partner
and diplomatic partner in the next century. Specific questions on
welfare included whether the respondent was willing to pay more in
taxes to provide job training and public service for people on
welfare, what is to blame when people are poor, whether there were
jobs available for welfare recipients, whether these jobs paid enough
to support a family, and whether the government should create work
programs for people on welfare. Respondents were asked to describe the
relations between Japan and the United States today and to comment on
whether overall relations would get better or worse in the next few
years. Specific questions on Japan included whether the respondent
believed that most Japanese respect Americans, whether Japan would be
an ally that the United States could depend on, whether Japanese
companies were competing unfairly with American companies, and which
country--Japan or the United States--was better able to develop new
technology and make more technologically-advanced consumer products.
Other topics included respondents' opinions on the federal budget,
prayer in school, and whether Japan or Germany should be admitted into
the United Nations Security Council. Background information on
respondents includes voter registration status, household composition,
vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party,
political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious
preference, and family income.

This three-wave survey was conducted as part of an
evaluation of the Communities in Charge (CIC) initiative, a
competitive grants program funded by the Robert Wood Johnson
Foundation (RWJF). CIC provided funding and technical assistance to
help communities design and implement new or expand existing
approaches for supplying health care to the uninsured. Three of the 14
CIC sites funded by RWJF in 2001 were selected for the survey: Alameda
County, California, Austin, Texas, and southern Maine. With CIC grant
support, all three created programs that provided fairly comprehensive
health benefits to low-income, uninsured participants, who were
interviewed by the survey within three months of enrollment (Wave 1)
and again at about six months and 12 months after enrollment (Waves 2
and 3). Conducted in English in southern Maine, English and Spanish in
Austin, and English, Spanish, and Cantonese in Alameda County, the
survey collected information on demographic and socioeconomic
characteristics, health status, health insurance coverage, access to
health services, and health services utilization. Additional topics
covered by the survey include out-of-pocket spending on health care,
unmet health care needs, and satisfaction with and opinions about
health care. There are two data files for each wave, one with the data
from the Cantonese interviews and one with the data from the English
and Spanish interviews.

This data collection is comprised of data from the 2006 Annual Social and Economic Supplement (ASEC), and is a part of the Current Population Survey (CPS) Series. The Census Bureau conducts the ASEC (known as the Annual Demographic File prior to 2003) over a three-month period, in February, March, and April, with most of the data collected in the month of March. The ASEC uses two sets of survey questions, the basic CPS and a set of supplemental questions.
The CPS, administered monthly, is a labor force survey providing current estimates of the economic status and activities of the population of the United States. Specifically, the CPS provides estimates of total employment (both farm and nonfarm), nonfarm self-employed persons, domestics, and unpaid helpers in nonfarm family enterprises, wage and salaried employees, and estimates of total unemployment.
In addition to the basic CPS questions, respondents were asked questions from the ASEC, which provides supplemental data on poverty, geographic mobility/migration, and work experience. Comprehensive work experience information was given on the employment status, occupation, and industry of persons aged 15 and over. Additional data for persons aged 15 and older were available concerning weeks worked and hours per week worked, reason not working full time, total income and supplemental income components. Additional data are included that cover training and assistance received under welfare reform programs such as job readiness training, child care services, or job skill training. Data covering nine noncash income sources: food stamps, school lunch program,
employer-provided group health insurance plan, employer-provided pension plan, personal health insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, CHAMPUS or military health care, and energy assistance are also included.
Demographic variables include age, sex, race, Hispanic origin, marital status, veteran status, educational attainment, occupation, and income. Data on employment and income refer to the previous calendar year, although demographic data refer to the time of the survey.
The original ASEC data provided by the Census Bureau are distributed in a hierarchical file structure, with three record types present: Household, Family, and Person. The ASEC is designed to be a multistage stratified sample of housing units, where the hierarchical file structure can be thought of as a person within a family within a household unit. Here the main unit of analysis is the household unit. For ease of analysis at the
person-level, ICPSR created a rectangular file structure that contains a record for every person with the respective Household and Family variables prepended to the Person variables. Part 1 contains the rectangular data file and Part 2 contains the original hierarchical data file.

This study of 400 adults of Caucasian or African-American descent in the Detroit metropolitan area provides information on their attitudes toward White Racial Ideology. Respondents were asked about their views on the role of government in addressing the needs of minorities and the poor in our nation such as: taxing the rich and big businesses more heavily than the working and middle class, and providing educational programs to poor and minorities. Other questions elicited respondent views on characteristics that some people associate with different groups. These characteristics included violence, laziness, being athletic, law-bidding, and intelligence.
Additional items explored respondents' attitudes toward poverty and the cause of poverty in the society.
Demographic variables include age, sex, race, education, marital status, number of children, political view, choice of neighborhood, length of time at present residence, religion, income, occupation, original nationality of husband's and wife's family, home ownership, social class identification, and length of residency in Detroit.

This study measured the difference that defense counsel made to the outcome of homicide and death penalty cases. One in five indigent murder defendants in Philadelphia were randomly assigned representation by the Defender Association of Philadelphia while the remainder received court-appointed private attorneys. This study's research design utilized this random assignment to measure how defense counsel affected murder case outcomes. The research team collected data on 3,157 defendants charged with murder in Philadelphia Municipal Court between 1995-2004, using records provided by the Philadelphia Courts (First Judicial District of Pennsylvania). Data were also obtained from the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, the Pennsylvania Unified Judicial System web portal, the National Corrections Reporting Program, and the 2000 Census. This study contains a total of 47 variables including public defender representation, defendant demographics, ZIP code characteristics, prior criminal history, case characteristics, case outcomes, and case handling procedures.

The Enhanced Services for the Hard-to-Employ (HtE) Demonstration and Evaluation Project was a 10-year study (taken on by the MDRC) that evaluated innovative strategies aimed at improving employment and other outcomes for groups who faced serious barriers to employment. The Enhanced Services for the Hard-to-Employ is the first comprehensive attempt to understand the diverse low-income population and to test interventions aimed at the most common barriers that are encountered in this population's employment. The HtE demonstration was designed to evaluate a variety of innovative ways to boost employment, reduce welfare receipt, and promote well-being in low-income populations. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the Enhanced Early Head Start (EHS) program on addressing the developmental needs of young children living in poverty by offering enhanced services aimed at proactively addressing the employment and educational needs of their parents. This program included the addition of on-site self-sufficiency specialists to work with program staff and families on topics such as, formalized employment, self-sufficiency services and community partnerships with local employment-focused and educational agencies. The Early Head Start full research sample consists of 610 individuals randomly assigned between August 2004 and December 2006 (305 members in the program group and 305 in the control group). The research team followed the two groups for over three years, using surveys and administrative data. All 610 sample members completed a baseline survey at random assignment, providing basic demographic information, employment and child care history prior to the study. Two follow-up surveys were collected at the 18-month and 42-month mark. At 42-months, respondents who responded to the 18-month survey were asked about child care activities since their earlier survey interview date, while respondents who responded only to the 42-month survey were asked about child care activities since random assignment. Data were collected on receipt of EHS services and assistance programs, TANF history, type and amount of child care used, child immunization records, parenting, child behavior, child social-emotional skills, as well as child reading and math skills. Demographic information includes age, race, marital status, education, source of income, employment status, and public assistance information.

The Enhanced Services for the Hard-to-Employ (HtE) Demonstration and Evaluation Project was a 10-year study (taken on by the MDRC) that evaluated innovative strategies aimed at improving employment and other outcomes for groups who face serious barriers to employment. The Enhanced Services for the Hard-to-Employ was the first comprehensive attempt to understand the diverse low-income population and to test interventions aimed at the most common barriers to this population's employment. The HtE demonstration was designed to evaluate a variety of innovative ways to boost employment, reduce welfare receipt, and promote well-being in low-income populations. This study tests two employment strategies. The first employment strategy, administered by the Transitional Work Corporation (TWC), was a paid transitional employment program that combined temporary, subsidized employment with work-related assistance. The second employment strategy, the Success Through Employment Preparation (STEP) program, focused on assessing and treating employment barriers before participants obtained a job. From 2004 to 2006, 1,942 recipients of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) who were not currently employed or participating in work activities were randomly assigned to one of the two program groups. Evaluation of the programs had three components: implementation and process analysis, impact analysis, and cost analysis. The implementation and process analysis examined how the programs operated, based primarily on site visits and interviews with program staff and administrators. The impact analysis measured the programs' effects on outcomes including employment, welfare use, and family functioning. The cost analysis compares the financial costs of the interventions. Outcomes for both groups were followed for at least three years, using public administrative records and surveys of study participants. In addition, follow-up surveys were conducted 15 and 36 months after random assignment in most sites. Information was collected on whether respondents participated in employment, vocational or education training activity. Respondents were asked whether they received help for things such as childcare, getting and/or keeping Medicaid and food stamps, paying for transportation, substance abuse treatment, addressing domestic violence, addressing legal issues, financial needs, or handling their household budget. Respondents were also asked if they received paid vacation time or sick days, where their income came from, and whether they earned any type of degree or certificate. Additional topics include health status, the length of time respondents received TANF funds, and employment history. Demographic information includes age, race, marital status, education, employment status, and home ownership status.

The major focus of this Euro-Barometer is the respondent's
knowledge of and attitudes toward the nations of the Third World.
Topics covered include the culture and customs of these nations, the
existence of poverty and hunger, and the respondent's opinions on how
best to provide assistance to Third World countries. Individuals
answered questions on social and political conditions as well as on the
level of economic development in these countries. Additionally,
respondents were asked to assess the state of relations between the
respondent's country and various Third World nations. Another focus of
this data collection concerns energy problems and resources in the
countries of the European Economic Community. Respondents were asked to
choose which regions of the world are considered to be reliable
suppliers of fossil fuel for the future and to evaluate the risks that
various industrial installations such as chemical and nuclear power
plants pose to people living nearby. Respondents were also asked about
solutions to the need for additional energy supplies in the future.
Possible solutions included the development or continued development of
nuclear power, the encouragement of research into producing renewable
energy sources such as solar energy, and the conservation of energy. As
in previous surveys in this series, respondents' attitudes toward the
Community, life satisfaction, and social goals continued to be
monitored. The survey also asked each individual to assess the
advantages and disadvantages of the creation of a single common
European market and whether they approved or disapproved of current
efforts to unify western Europe. In addition, the respondent's
political orientation, outlook for the future, and socioeconomic and
demographic characteristics were probed.

This round of Euro-Barometer surveys queried respondents on
standard Euro-Barometer measures such as public awareness of and
attitudes toward the Common Market and the European Community (EC), and
also focused on poverty and social exclusion, examining the extent and
immediacy of these problems for respondents. Items covered whether the
respondent's family or friends were experiencing poverty or social
exclusion, how often the respondent saw instances of poverty and social
exclusion, and whether the respondent believed that people had a chance
of rising out of these circumstances. Respondents were also asked about
the main reasons for poverty and social exclusion, the best ways to
combat these conditions, what the role of volunteer groups, unions,
employers, and the European Community (EC) should be, and whether the
fight against poverty and social exclusion should be a priority
objective for the EC. Also included were questions that asked whether
respondents had given or would give any time to help disadvantaged
people and what types of activities they had performed or would be
prepared to perform. Respondents were asked to compare the current
general economic and employment situations in their countries, the
financial situation of their households, and their job situations with
those of 12 months ago and 12 months ahead. Respondents were also asked
to rate various aspects of their everyday life, including housing,
income, work, social entitlements, and health. On EC matters,
respondents were asked how well-informed they felt about the EC, what
sources of information about the EC they used, whether their country
had benefited from being an EC member, and the extent of their personal
interest in EC matters. Demographic and other background information
was gathered on number of people residing in the home, size of
locality, home ownership, trade union membership, region of residence,
and occupation of the head of household, as well as the respondent's
age, sex, marital status, education, occupation, work sector, religion,
religiosity, subjective social class, left-right political
self-placement, and opinion leadership.

This round of Eurobarometer surveys diverged from standard
questions instead it focused on the social exclusion and modernization
of pension systems in European Union countries. Respondents were asked
why people were socially excluded, what the role of government should
be in reducing the risk of poverty and social exclusion, how satisfied
they were with their lives, whether there were people in their
neighborhoods who lived in poverty, and what it meant to live properly.
They were also asked whether they had financial problems, and if so,
for how long and what had caused them. A number of questions focused on
problems related to work. Respondents were asked whether they had been
unemployed in the last five years and if so for how long. Those
employed or self-employed were asked questions concerning job
satisfaction, the type of organization for which they worked, the
number of hours worked, their job title, number of people employed at
their workplace, how long they had been continuously employed, and what
they took into consideration when choosing a job. They were also asked
whether their job was interesting and secure, whether they had to work
hard and under pressure, whether their employers paid for training or
education, whether they had friends at work, and whether they had
influence over the decision-making processes at their workplace and in
deciding how to do their tasks. They also compared different aspects of
their current job with what they had been doing five years ago,
described relations between management and employees, and commented on
how their work affected their health and their lives after work.
Another major focus of the surveys was the pension system. Those who
had already retired were asked at what age they had retired, what the
main source of their retirement income was, whether their current
financial situation was better than before retirement and what it would
look like in five to ten years, and whether the state pension allowed
them to get by easily. Non-pensioners supplied information about when
they intended to retire, what their main source of income would be
after retirement, what percentage of their current household's total
income after tax they considered sufficient in retirement, and how they
were saving for their retirement. Additionally, respondents were asked
what a good pension system should look like, how the pension should be
provided, what level of minimum guaranteed income should be provided
for elderly people, whether older workers should be forced to retire at
a fixed age, whether men and women should be treated equally in terms
of the retirement system, and how retirement problems caused by an
aging society should be resolved. Demographic and other background
information collected includes respondent's age, gender, nationality,
marital status, left-right political self-placement, occupation, age at
completion of education, trade union membership, household income, type
and size of locality, and region of residence.

This round of Eurobarometer surveys diverged from the
Standard Eurobarometer measures and queried respondents on the
following topics: (1) cultural values, (2) poverty and social
exclusion, (3) developmental aid, and (4) residential mobility. For
the first major focus, cultural values, the survey asked respondents
questions pertaining to the meaning and importance of culture, their
interest and participation in cultural activities, and their national
identity. The respondents were also asked to identify cultural values
for Europe as well as other countries, about the importance and
promotion of cultural exchange, and whether they would learn a foreign
language. For the next major focus, respondents were asked to evaluate
their personal financial situation and that of people dwelling in the
vicinity of their homes, and to ascertain why people fall into poverty
or are excluded from society. They were also asked why people become
homeless, the likelihood that they, themselves, would become homeless,
and whether they help the homeless. Respondents were further asked to
evaluate their quality of life and to determine their needs in
attaining decent living conditions for themselves and for
children. For the third major focus, respondents were asked to
evaluate their knowledge of developmental aid plans, the European
Consensus on Development, and the Millennium Development
Goals. Respondents were asked to identify the motivation of countries
providing developmental aid, and the added value of the European Union (EU) in doing
so. In addition, respondents shared their opinions as to which
organizations should have the most influence on the priorities for
developmental aid, and which countries and issues should be
acknowledged as needing the most attention and assistance. The final
major focus pertained to residential mobility. The survey queried
respondents about their relocation history, reasons for moving or not
moving, countries to which they intended to move, preparing for a move
(including difficulties they may encounter), and the duration of their
stay at a location. Demographic and other background information
includes respondent's age, gender, nationality, origin of birth
(personal and parental), marital status, left-to-right political
self-placement, occupation, age when stopped full-time education,
household composition, and ownership of a fixed or a mobile telephone
and other durable goods. In addition, country-specific data include
the type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of
interview (select countries).

This round of Eurobarometer surveys diverged from the Standard Eurobarometer measures and queried respondents on the following major areas of focus: (1) poverty and social exclusion, (2) social services, (3) climate change, and (4) the national economic situation and statistics. For the first major focus, poverty and social exclusion, respondents were queried about their own definition of poverty, the extent of poverty in their area, trends in the growth or decline of poverty in their area and in the world, social and personal causes of poverty and homelessness, and negative effects of poverty. Questions also included the risk of poverty for themselves and others, the importance of governmental wealth redistribution, social tension between groups, trust in individual people, trust in and reliability of institutions in fighting poverty, minimal acceptable living standards, and the level of homelessness in their area. In addition, respondents were queried on their ability to keep their job, the relationship between their job and their family, their own personal aid to help the poor, access to financial services, the respondents' satisfaction with life, and the respondents' own living conditions and income. For the second major focus, social services, respondents were asked about such services as long term care, childcare, public employment, social housing, and social assistance. Questions focused on how much they or others around them use social services, the quality and affordability of social services, preferences for elderly care and childcare, the prioritization of group assistance, and the financing of social services. For the third major focus, climate change, respondents were asked about the seriousness of climate change, governmental attempts to fight climate change, personal actions taken to fight climate change, and the relationship between environmental protection and economic growth. Finally, for the fourth major focus, the national economic situation and statistics, respondents were asked to estimate their country's official growth rate, inflation rate, and unemployment rate, and were asked to give their opinions on the importance and trustworthiness of economic statistics. Respondents were also queried on the employment and economic situations in their country. Demographic and other background information includes left-right political placement, occupation, age, gender, marital status, age at completion of full-time education, household composition, ownership of a fixed or a mobile telephone and other durable goods, internet usage, financial situation, level in society, minority group affiliation, region of residence, type and size of locality, and language of interview (in select countries).

This round of Eurobarometer surveys diverged from the Standard Eurobarometer measures and queried respondents on the following major areas of focus: (1) poverty and social exclusion, (2) mobile phone use, (3) economic crisis, and (4) international trade. For the first major area of focus, poverty and social exclusion, the survey queried respondents about their own definition of poverty, the extent of poverty and homelessness in their area, and whether or not respondents believed poverty had increased in their area and elsewhere. Respondents were queried about what necessities people must be able to afford to meet a minimal acceptable living standard, who is most at risk for poverty, as well as the social, political, and personal causes of poverty and homelessness. Respondents were also asked about how poverty impacts peoples' chances of completing certain activities, such as getting a good education or finding a job. Respondents were then asked whether or not they trust the European Union (EU), their governments, charities, other citizens, and miscellaneous institutions to effectively respond to poverty. Respondents were also asked to whom they assign primary responsibility for reducing or preventing poverty, what policies their governments should focus on in the future in the effort to help people out of poverty, and whether or not respondents approved of their government's existing anti-poverty measures. Respondents were also queried about their perception of social tensions between groups, and about what they have done personally to help poor people. Additionally, respondents were queried about their own living conditions, satisfaction with life, ability to keep a job, efforts to fight poverty, finances, and their own risk of falling into poverty. For the second major area of focus, mobile phone use, the survey asked respondents about whether or not they owned a mobile phone, their mobile phone use in other EU countries, and the cost of cellular phone service in those countries. For the third major area of focus, economic crisis, the survey questioned respondents about the degree to which the crisis personally affected them, how the crisis affected the EU and its policy efforts, who should bear responsibility for the crisis, who should bear the burden of response to the crisis, and how the European Parliament and other bodies should respond to the crisis. For the fourth major area of focus, international trade, the survey queried respondents on whether they pay attention to the country of origin for products they purchase, how trade impacts respondents and their countries, what European Union trade policy should be going into the future, and the European Union's international economic standing. Demographic and other background information collected includes age, gender, nationality, marital status and parental relations, left-right political self-placement, occupation, age when stopped full-time education, household composition, ownership of a fixed or a mobile telephone and other durable goods, difficulties in paying bills, level in society, and Internet use. In addition, country-specific data includes type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries).

he survey also contained a set of statements about the convenience of and satisfaction with child care at the time of the interview. Respondents were asked the total weekly amount they paid for all care at the time of the interview. This measure of out-of-pocket expenses was used rather than the provider-specific cost question from the section on child care arrangements because it was thought that parents would more reliably report their overall expenditures than their expenditures for each
provider for each child.
Employment: Information on jobs held at the time of the survey interview was used to create measures of employment, hours worked, and job characteristics for that job. Information on all jobs held in the year after random assignment was used to create measures of employment stability.
Major Life Events: Respondents were asked about the occurrence of nine major types of events or other
problems since the time of random assignment.
Income: Respondents were asked about total household income and sources of income in the month prior to the survey.

Evaluation of Child Care Subsidy Strategies

The Evaluation of Child Care Subsidy Strategies is a multi-site, multi-year effort to determine whether and how different child care subsidy policies and procedures and quality improvement efforts help low-income parents obtain and hold onto jobs and improve outcomes for children. Funding from the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) administered by the Child Care Bureau are divided into two purposes. The vast majority are aimed at assisting children of low-income working parents whose eligibility is determined by states within broad federal guidelines, while a much smaller portion (4 percent) work with state matching funds to improve the quality of child care for all children. For this study series, four experiments were conducted, two test alternative subsidy policies for low-income families and two test approaches to the use of set-aside funds for improving child care quality for all children. The four study sites and focus of evaluation include: (1) the effectiveness of three language and literacy curricula on teaching practices and children's language and literacy outcomes (Miami Dade County, Florida); (2) the impact of alternative eligibility and re-determination child care subsidy policies on parental employment outcomes (Illinois); (3) the impact of alternative child care co-payment structures on use of child care subsidies and employment outcomes (Washington) and (4) the effectiveness of training on Learning Games curriculum in changing care-giving practices in family child care homes and children's developmental outcomes (Massachusetts).
The Washington evaluation was designed to test the impact of changing parental copayment levels on various child care and economic outcomes (such as type of care used, earnings, employment, etc.). The copayment amount refers to the amount that families who are receiving child care subsidies contribute to the cost of child care, while the copayment schedule refers to the amount or the rate at which the copayment changes as income increases or decreases. In all states, the copayment amount is larger for families with higher incomes. In Washington in 2005, a three-person family receiving child care subsidies paid 3 percent of the cost of child care if their income was 33 percent of the federal poverty threshold, but 16 percent of the cost of care if their income was 200 percent of the threshold. In the Washington child care subsidy program, families were divided into three income tiers. Families in Tier 1 had incomes at or below 82 percent of the federal poverty threshold, families in Tier 2 had incomes between 83 and 137.5 percent of the threshold, and families in Tier 3 had incomes between 137.5 and 200 percent of the threshold. Under the standard copayment schedule used by Washington in 2005, child care subsidy recipients in Tier 1 paid $15 per month, while recipients in Tier 2 paid $50 per month. Families in Tier 3 faced a sliding copayment schedule, with the copayment increasing by 44 cents for each additional dollar of income beyond 137.5 percent of the poverty threshold. In the evaluation, study participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: (1) a control group assigned to the standard copayment schedule, and (2) a program group assigned to an alternative copayment schedule, which had copayment amounts that were equal to or lower than standard copayment schedule amounts.

The purpose of this project is to study the early development of a group of children who are at risk regarding later successful adjustment and for whom we have little information: children living in rural, largely poor communities. A birth cohort of 800 children in three rural counties of North Carolina and 600 children in three rural counties of Pennsylvania were studied over the first 3 years of life. A multidisciplinary team investigated multiple levels of influences affecting the early development of these children.
The research emphases of the component research projects include the following:
Project I: Temperament: Emphasizes the development of child-related factors and how they predict preschool social-emotional and cognitive competence
Project II: School Readiness: Emphasizes the pathways to and precursors of school readiness
Project III: Family Process: Emphasizes how family processes mediate or moderate the effects of rural poverty on children
Project IV: Work and Family: Emphasizes the impact of parents' occupational conditions on parenting, and, in turn, children's social, cognitive, emotional and linguistic development
Project V: Ethnography: Emphasizes two components:
an in-depth contextual appraisal of community characteristics
a family ethnography with 72 families developmentally ahead of the cohort above to provide input to design and measurement
This project used a cumulative risk model to examine the relation between social risk and children's executive functioning, language development and
behavioral competence at 36 months. Using both the Family Process Model of development and the Family Investment Model of development, observed parenting was examined over time in relation to child functioning at 36 months. Different aspects of observed parenting were examined as mediators/moderators of risk in predicting child outcomes. Results suggested that cumulative risk was important in predicting all three major domains of child outcomes and that positive and negative parenting and maternal language complexity were mediators of these
relations. Maternal positive parenting was found to be a buffer for the most risky families in predicting behavioral competence. In a final model using both family process and investment measures, there was evidence of mediation but with little evidence of the specificity of parenting for particular outcomes. Results demonstrate the importance of cumulative risk and parenting in understanding child competence in rural poverty and the implications for possible intervention strategies that might be effective in maximizing the early development of these children.

China's dramatic economic and educational changes over the past 20 years have
stimulated concerns about the education of children in rural areas. Recent
empirical studies give evidence of growing disparities in educational
opportunities between urban and rural areas and socio-economic and geographic
inequities in basic-level educational participation within rural areas. These
studies also point to a persisting gender gap in enrollment and to the
disproportionate impact of poverty on girls' educational participation (Hannum
1998b; Zhang 1998).
This study focused on the influence of poverty on the schooling of 11
to 14 year-old children in rural Gansu, an interior province in Northwest China
characterized by high rates of rural poverty and a substantial dropout problem.
Substantively, this study was innovative in adopting an integrated
approach: it focused on the community, family, and school contexts in which
children are educated. Methodologically, the study combined
information on children's academic performance and school characteristics, with a
household-based sample that allowed examination of the academic experiences of
children who have left the education system as well as those who have persisted
in it. Finally, the project was the baseline wave for the
first large-scale, longitudinal study devoted to education and social inequality
conducted in rural China. Results of this study contribute to an understanding of basic social stratification processes and provide insights for developing intervention strategies to improve educational access and effectiveness in rural China.

In 1999, the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation started the Gates Millennium Scholars Program (GMS), a 20-year initiative which intends to expand access to higher education for high achieving, low-income minority students. In addition to its academic objectives, GMS also has the goal of creating future leaders in minority groups. The program is administered by the United Negro College Fund (UNCF). In 2000, the first year of the program, over 4,000 grants were awarded to minority students who were entering college or continuing their undergraduate or graduate studies during the 2000-2001 academic year. Since then, an additional 1,000 scholarships have been awarded to outstanding freshmen every year. Awardees can receive the scholarship for up to 5 years as an undergraduate and 4 years as a graduate student. The scholarship is renewable through graduate school in math, science, engineering, library science, and education.
To be eligible, students had to meet several qualifications. They must (1) be of African American, American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, or Pacific Islander background; (2) be full-time students entering college or university; (3) have a GPA of at least 3.3 on a 4.0 scale; (4) be eligible for Pell Grants; (5) be leaders in community service, extracurricular, or other activities.
In order to see how GMS has impacted students and to know how to better prepare minority students for college, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has commissioned a survey of recipients. The survey was distributed to Cohort 1 (award year 2000), Cohort 2 (award year 2001), Cohort 3 (award year 2002), Cohort 5 (award year 2004), and Cohort 9 (award year 2008). Cohorts are composed of both recipients and non-recipients. Non-recipients are defined as individuals who were asked to go on to the scholar confirmation/verification phase, but did not become a scholar for one or more reasons. This is an ongoing survey with the fifth, and final, follow-up occurring 18 years after high school around the age of 36. The survey included questions that address the topics of (a) social, cultural, linguistic, economic background; (b) race/ethnicity and gender patterns; (c) high school preparation and experiences; (d) the role of financial aid; (e) college choice; (f) major choice; (g) engagement and leadership in college; (h) academic achievement, persistence, and completions; (i) graduate education plans; (j) career choice and transition to the workplace; and (k) democratic values and leadership after college.
For the first year of the program, GMS awarded 4,053 scholarships to freshman, continuing undergraduate students, and graduate students. Baseline, first follow-up, second follow-up, and longitudinal survey data have been collected from both recipients and non-recipients. Non-cognitive scores are also available for Cohort 1.

The purpose of this project was to estimate long-term trends in violent victimization by gender and various socio-demographic factors. These factors included race and ethnicity, age, type of place (urban, suburban, rural), socio-economic status, marital status (for adults), and family status (for juveniles). The principal investigators also further disaggregated these violent victimization trends by victim-offender relationship to reveal trends in violence committed by strangers, intimate partners, and known/non-intimate offenders. The researchers produced these various trends in violent victimization by pooling and appropriately weighting the National Crime Survey and its successor, the National Crime Victimization Survey for the period 1973 to 2005, resulting in 33 years of data. In total, a series of 135 trends in violent victimization were developed.

The General Social Surveys (GSS) were designed as part of a data diffusion project in 1972. The GSS replicated questionnaire items and wording in order to facilitate time-trend studies. The latest survey, GSS 2010, includes a cumulative file that merges all 28 General Social Surveys into a single file containing data from 1972 to 2010. The items appearing in the surveys are one of three types: Permanent questions that occur on each survey, rotating questions that appear on two out of every three surveys (1973, 1974, and 1976, or 1973, 1975, and 1976), and a few occasional questions such as split ballot experiments that occur in a single survey. The 2010 surveys included four topic modules: quality of working life, science, shared capitalism, and CDC high risk behaviors. The International Social Survey Program (ISSP) module included in the 2010 survey was environment. The data also contain several variables describing the demographic characteristics of the respondents.

The items appearing in the surveys are one of three types: Permanent questions that occur on each survey, rotating questions that appear on two out of every three surveys (1973, 1974, and 1976, or 1973, 1975, and 1976), and a few occasional questions such as split ballot experiments that occur in a single survey. The 2012 surveys included seven topic modules: Jewish identity, generosity, workplace violence, science, skin tone, and modules for experimental and miscellaneous questions. The International Social Survey Program (ISSP) module included in the 2012 survey was gender. The data also contain several variables describing the demographic characteristics of the respondents.

The Moving to Opportunity (MTO) program was a randomized housing experiment administered by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that gave low-income families living in high-poverty areas the chance to move to lower-poverty areas. This Restricted Access Dataset (RAD) includes data from the 3,273 adults interviewed as part of the MTO long-term evaluation and is comprised of variables analyzed for the article "Neighborhood Effects on the Long-Term Well-Being of Low-Income Adults" that was published in the journal
Science
on September 21, 2012. The article focused on subjective well-being, physical and mental health, social networks, neighborhoods, housing, and economic self-sufficiency. Families were tracked from the baseline survey (1994-1998) through the long-term evaluation survey fielding period (2008-2010) with the purpose of determining the effects of "neighborhood" on participating families from five United States cities. Households were randomly assigned to one of three groups:
The low-poverty voucher (LPV) group (also called the experimental group) received Section 8 rental assistance certificates or vouchers that they could use only in census tracts with 1990 poverty rates below 10 percent. The families received mobility counseling and help in leasing a new unit. One year after relocating, families could use their voucher to move again if they wished, without any special constraints on location.
The traditional voucher (TRV) group (also called the Section 8 group) received regular Section 8 certificates or vouchers that they could use anywhere; these families received no special mobility counseling.
The control group received no certificates or vouchers through MTO, but continued to be eligible for project-based housing assistance and other social programs and services to which they would otherwise be entitled.
The dataset contains all outcomes and mediators analyzed for the
Science
article, as well as a variety of demographic and other baseline measures that were controlled for in the analysis. Demographic information includes age, gender, race/ethnicity, employment status, and education level.

Classroom Services and Specific Instructional Practices
Within the 40 classrooms in each participating state, carefully
trained data collectors conducted classroom observations twice each
year, while additional surveys were used to gather information from
administrators/principals, teachers, and parents. Data were gathered
on program services, (e.g., healthcare, meals, and transportation),
program curriculum, teacher training and education, teachers' opinions
of child development, and their instructional practices on subjects
such as language, literacy, mathematics concepts, and
social-emotional competencies. Data were also collected as to what
types of steps were taken to aid children in their transitions from
pre-k to kindergarten.
Children
Within each participating pre-k classroom, four randomly selected
children were assessed using a battery of individual instruments to
measure language, literacy, mathematics, and related concept
development, as well as social competence. A panel of expert reviewers
aided the researchers in selecting a variety of standardized and
nonstandardized assessments. The pre-k child assessments were
conducted in the fall and spring of 2001-2002. The same children were
followed into kindergarten and assessed in the fall and spring of
2002-2003 to examine whether specific practices employed by pre-k
teachers made a difference in their transitions to kindergarten.
Families
In individual home-based interviews, information on socio-economic,
socio-cultural, and familial contexts were obtained through open-ended
questions, structured ratings, and videotaped parent-child interactions.
Specifically, parents were asked about (1) family life as it relates
to socio-economic status and socio-cultural environment, (2) family
educational practices and beliefs about the comparative roles of
school and family in educating children, (3) the nature and quality of
the home-school relationship, and (4) their own ratings of their
children's psychological development and social competence.
Demographic information collected includes race, gender, family
income, and mother's education level.
The above information pertains to the Main Child Level Public-Use Version and the Main Child Level Restricted-Use Version. From these main datasets, subsets were created at the classroom level for Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K Classroom Level Public-Use Version and Pre-K Classroom Level Restricted-Use Version) and for Kindergarten (Kindergarten Classroom Level Public-Use Version and Kindergarten Classroom Level Restricted-Use Version).

The primary purpose of the National Neighborhood Crime Study (NNCS) was to assemble tract-level crime and sociodemographic data for cities across the United States in order to permit analyses of the sources of crime for "communities" of different racial-ethnic and class composition. The NNCS also sought to examine the extent to which the causes of crime in communities are contingent on the types of geographic region, labor market, or other contextual characteristics. To fulfill these purposes, the NNCS compiled crime and sociodemographic data for census tracts in a representative sample of large United States cities for 2000. The dataset includes: (1) tract-level crime data pertaining to seven of the FBI's crime index offenses; (2) tract-level information on social disorganization, structural disadvantage, socioeconomic inequality, mortgage lending, and other control variables garnered from the 2000 United States Census of Population and Housing Summary File 3 (SF3) and other publicly available sources; (3) city-level information for the city in which the tract is located, focused on labor market structure, socioeconomic inequality, population change, and other control variables; and (4) metropolitan area data for the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) or Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (PMSA) in which the tract is located, focused on labor market structure, socioeconomic inequality, population change, and other control variables (also taken from the 2000 Census and other publicly available sources). The NNCS contains data for 9,593 census tracts in 91 cities in 64 metropolitan areas. (Please see the collection note section for additional information about variable naming.)

This study focused on the indirect consequences of new
housing construction by examining the sequences of moves triggered by
first-time occupancies of new homes. In particular, the investigation
attempted to ascertain whether the construction of new, relatively
expensive housing might indirectly benefit low-income people or
African Americans who could not afford to purchase these new houses
but would be able to move into vacancies created farther along the
chain. Interviews were first conducted with a representative sample of
first-time inhabitants of newly-built homes, and then with the
families that moved into the dwellings left vacant. Wherever possible,
each chain of moves was followed to its logical
conclusion. Demographic information includes age, sex, and education
of family head, race of respondent, family life cycle, and family
income.

The New Hope Project gathered information on respondents over eight years using several data sources. This collection consists of three datasets: (1) Adults, (2) Child and Family Study (CFS) Parents, and (3) Youth. Information was collected on respondent's employment history, job characteristics and security, other sources of income, feelings about respondent's financial situation, material hardship, respondent's access to health care, as well as experiences with the New Hope program. Furthermore, families with at least one child between the ages of 1 and 10 at initial random assignment were selected for the Child and Family Study (CFS). The CFS independently surveyed parents/primary caregivers and up to two focal children when applicable, and collected information about the parents' and the child's well-being. Additionally, teachers of school-aged children were mailed surveys and asked to rate the child's performance and behavior. Demographic variables include age, gender, race, nationality, citizenship, educational attainment, employment status, income, marital status, parent-child relations, and household composition.

This survey examines the attitudes of New Yorkers towards
race relations. Topics covered include the racial composition of the
respondent's neighborhood and friends, the most important white and
black leaders in New York City, police brutality, discrimination on
racial grounds for housing and jobs, crime, and important problems
facing New York City such as drugs, transportation, the poor and
homeless, corruption, and illegal aliens. Additional questions asked of
respondents include if they approved or disapproved of the way Ed Koch
has handled his job as mayor, if New York City courts were tougher on
blacks or whites, if the level of racial discrimination had increased
or decreased, and if a preference in hiring or promotion should be
given to blacks. Background information on individuals includes party
affiliation, age, income, sex, religious preference, education, and
race.

Oregon, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Washington. The survey first
asked the respondents to name their place of residence (in terms of
state, county, and town), how long they had lived at their residence,
and how much longer they planned to reside there. Then a sequence of
questions asked respondents for their thoughts about the community,
such as how they felt about it, whether they felt they belonged,
whether they were fairly treated or excluded from the community, and
how safe they felt walking around their community at night. They were
also asked about the attitudes of individuals and the relationships
between community members. The survey further asked about community
involvement, group membership, and social participation, access to
outside sources for problem-solving, and how well the members
cooperated with one another (in groups and in neighborhoods) when they
disagreed. The questionnaire also asked respondents to assess how well
people of different ethnic groups interacted with the community as a
whole and within groups, organizations, and activities. It asked for
respondents' assessment of government services for the community,
their trust in government as well as members and leaders of local
groups (business, ethnic, and religious), and the cooperation of the
community in emergencies. Respondents were asked to evaluate their
ability to make a positive impact in their community and the ability
of people and groups to provide assistance to the poverty-stricken and
to reduce the number of those in poverty. Moreover, the survey asked
respondents about the presence of leadership programs in their
community and the effects, if any, they had on its members. Switching
the focus, respondents were asked to evaluate their personal or
financial status, their ability to acquire a loan, credit, or other
financial services, and if they ever had difficulty paying for living
costs (food, housing, electricity, heating, telephone, or health
care). They were also asked to estimate how many people in the
community could not afford the basic living costs. Questions were
asked of respondents about their interest in staying informed about
public affairs, how often they accessed information in newspapers, how
often they voted in elections, the frequency in which young people
left town in search of better opportunities, and about the possibility
of implementing and developing small/local businesses within the
community. Finally, the survey collected general demographic
information including marital status, age, gender, race, education,
religion and religious affiliation, employment status, location of
residence (state, county, and town), whether they own or rent their
home, household composition, current assets and income, and their
access to telephones and the Internet.

The survey was designed to obtain information pertaining to community, neighborhood, local government, and community-based activities in an effort to discover ways to reduce poverty among the Ventures Communities (selected by the Northwest Area Foundation) in the Northwestern states of Idaho, Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota and Washington. Respondents were asked to identify their place of residence (state, county, and town) and length of time they had lived at that location, as well as a series of questions pertaining to their opinion about the community, the attitudes of persons within the community, and relationships between community members. The survey queried respondents about their community involvement and group memberships, and their connection with resources outside the community, and their neighbors, to solve inner-community issues. Respondents also appraised the quality of government services in the community, trust in local leaders and members of ethnic groups, the level of cooperation of community members in an emergency, and the effectiveness of individuals or organizations in reducing the number of people in poverty. For the next topic, respondents were asked to evaluate their personal or household financial status, such as their ability to obtain a loan, line of credit, or other financial services, and their ability to pay for basic living costs. Respondents were also asked whether they had received financial assistance from family, and to estimate the number of people or families in the community who could not afford basic living costs. The survey also asked respondents to identify their interest in public affairs, how frequently they accessed newspapers for information, and how often they voted in elections. Respondents evaluated how often young people move away to find better opportunities, their perception of safety while walking in the community at night, and the potential for the start up and growth of small businesses. In addition, respondents were asked about their health and quality of life. General demographic information includes: age, gender, race, religion and religious involvement, education, marital status, and employment status. Geographic information, in addition to location of residence, was obtained such as whether their residence was urban or rural, and whether or not they lived on or near an Indian reservation. Finally, household information was collected including household composition, income and current assets, the presence of a telephone or cell phone, and access to the Internet.

The
Oklahoma School Readiness Reach-by-Risk
study builds on the development of the Oklahoma School Readiness Risk Index (SRRI) in 2011 by including data on the scope of early childhood programs in each of the state's 77 counties. This research project seeks to analyze the prevalence of particular socio-demographic indicators of school readiness, as well as promote informed policy funding decisions related to early childhood education. The purpose of this study is to highlight counties where the risk for starting school unprepared to learn is high, yet opportunities for quality early childhood programs and services are low.
Within this study the researchers focused on prekindergarten students (with Hispanic background) who displayed signs of being unprepared to learn by examining two social constructs: risk and reach (identified by early childhood programs).
Risk
measures were assessed through a risk index comprised of 10 socioeconomic and demographic indicators found by empirical research to increase a child's risk of being unprepared for school.
The
Reach
measures were created by gathering data from early education programs, the state's universal prekindergarten program, early childhood home visitation programs, and child care services. Early childhood program reach was determined by analyzing the county-level service density of early childhood education and home visitation programs in addition to several aspects of child care services, such as provider quality ratings and enrollment of children with child care subsidies in quality facilities.

The Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) is an
ongoing data collection effort begun in 1968 in an attempt to fill
the need for a better understanding of the determinants of family
income and its changes. Core data are collected annually, with each
new wave of family data constituting a separate data file (Parts
2-27, 201-205). Data on individuals are contained in Part 1,
Cross-Year Individual File, 1968-1993 (Waves 1-26) [Public Release
II], and an early release of individual-level data through 1999 is
included in Part 201, Cross-Year Individual File, 1968-1999 (Waves
1-31) [Public Release I]. The PSID has continued to trace individuals
from the original national sample of approximately 4,800 households,
whether those individuals are living in the same dwelling or with the
same people. The investigators hoped to discover whether most
short-term changes in economic status are due to forces outside the
family or if they can be traced to something in the individual's own
background or in the pattern of his or her thinking and behavior.
The data can shed light on what causes family income to rise above or
fall below the poverty line. In line with the theoretical model, the
questions asked fall generally under the headings of economic status,
economic behavior, demographics, and attitudes. Specifically, they
deal with topics such as employment, income sources and amounts,
housing, car ownership, food expenditures, transportation,
do-it-yourself home maintenance and car repairs, education,
disability, time use, family background, family composition changes,
and residential location. Content of a more sociological or
psychological nature is also included in some waves of the
study. Information gathered in the survey applies to the
circumstances of the family unit as a whole (e.g., type of housing)
or to particular persons in the family unit (e.g., age,
earnings). While some information is collected about all individuals
in the family unit, the greatest level of detail is ascertained for
the primary adults heading the family unit. Core topics in the PSID
include income sources and amounts, poverty status, public assistance
in the form of food or housing, other financial matters (e.g., taxes,
inter-household transfers), family structure and demographic measures
(e.g., marital events, birth and adoptions, children forming
households), labor market participation (e.g., employment status,
vacation/sick time, occupation, industry, work experience), housing
(e.g., own/rent, house value/rent payment, size), geographic mobility
(e.g., when and why moved, where head of household grew up, all
states head of household lived in), and socioeconomic background
(e.g., education, ethnicity, religion, military service, parents'
education, occupation, poverty status). Beginning in 1985,
comprehensive retrospective fertility and marriage histories of
individuals in the households were assembled.

(Wave 27), was derived from Part 202, Family File, 1994 (Wave 27), an
early release version. The components of wealth were collected at the
family level. Part 15, Estimating Risk Tolerance from the 1996 PSID,
asked how willing employed respondents were to take jobs with
different income prospects. Parts 16 and 17 focus on active saving and
cover the time periods 1984-1989 and 1989-1994,
respectively. Sequences in these files are intended to measure flows
of money into and out of different assets such as putting money into
or taking it out of the stock market, putting money into annuities or
cashing them in. In combination with changes in the companion wealth
components these measures can be used to study savings versus capital
gains.

files, a Latino was defined as having at least one parent solely of
Mexican, Cuban, or Puerto Rican ancestry, or having at least two (any
two) grandparents solely of Mexican, Cuban, or Puerto Rican
ancestry. Part 1, 1990 Latino Sample Family-Individual File, offers
data on individuals who were members of the 2,043 households in the
1990 PSID Latino sample. This sample was taken from Temple
University's 1989 Latino National Political Survey (LNPS). To permit
comparisons across ethnic groups, a second file, Part 2, 1989 Core
Sample Family-Individual File for Use With Latino Sample, is
provided. This file contains data on members of the original 1989 PSID
sample. Part 3, 1990 Latino Sample Nonresponse File, presents data on
Latino individuals who responded to the 1989 LNPS but were not
successfully followed and reinterviewed in the 1990 PSID Latino
wave. Information is included on language proficiency, immigration,
family earnings, school status, general health status, and
employment.

Politics and the Migrant Poor in Mexico City is a comparative study of male migrants and their city-born neighbors living in six relatively small, predominately low-income communities on the periphery of Mexico City. Based on 14 months of fieldwork in these communities during 1970, 1971, and 1972, this study dealt with a relatively small group of people in a limited number of localities at a particular point in time. The research addressed several broad theoretical and empirical problems such as the most important incentives and disincentives for political involvement, the effect a large group of people entering the political arena has on the functioning of the political system, how the individual citizen -- and especially the disadvantaged citizen -- can manipulate the political system to satisfy their needs, the process by which individuals form images of politics and the political system, the process by which individuals assume a role of participation or non-participation in political activity, what occurs at the "grass roots" of a nation's political system, and how political activity at that level affects system outputs. This study attempted to place the low-income migrant in a social and political context, and focused on the nature and frequency of interactions between the research communities and external actors, especially political and government officials. Demographic variables include age, race, socio-economic status, marital status, dwelling unit type, and religious preference.

This data collection assessed the delivery strategies of microfinance institutions (MFIs) in Ghana with the aim of identifying best practices to guide operations of the industry. The specific objectives of the study were to assess the socio-economic profiles of clients of selected MFIs and non-client households, assess the poverty levels of MFIs' client households in relation to the non-client sample, and to make recommendations for policy and planning with a view to strengthening the delivery of MFIs poverty-related programmes.
Demographic information collected includes sex, age, education and health status of all household members, marital status, religion and occupation of adult household members aged 15 and above and ethnic group of household head.
Other components of the study instrument were: footwear and clothing expenditure, food-related indicators, dwelling-related indicators, other asset-based indicators, and other living standards indicators.

The Evaluation of Child Care Subsidy Strategies is a multi-site, multi-year effort to determine whether and how different child care subsidy policies and procedures and quality improvement efforts help low-income parents obtain and hold onto jobs and improve outcomes for children. Funding from the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) administered by the Child Care Bureau are divided into two purposes. The vast majority are aimed at assisting children of low-income working parents whose eligibility is determined by states within broad federal guidelines, while a much smaller portion (4 percent) work with state matching funds to improve the quality of child care for all children. For this studies series, four experiments were conducted, two test alternative subsidy policies for low-income families and two test approaches to the use of set-aside funds for improving child care quality for all children. The four study sites and focus of evaluation include: (1) effectiveness of three language and literacy curricula on teaching practices and children's language and literacy outcomes (Miami-Dade County, Florida); (2) impact of alternative eligibility and re-determination child care subsidy policies on parental employment outcomes (Illinois); (3) impact of alternative child care co-payment structures on use of child care subsidies and employment outcomes (Washington) and (4) effectiveness of training on Learning Games curriculum in changing care-giving practices in family child care homes and children's developmental outcomes (Massachusetts).
A two-year experiment, Project Upgrade tests the effectiveness of three different language and literacy interventions, Ready, Set, Leap! (RSL!), Breakthrough to Literacy (BTL) and Building Early Language and Literacy (BELL) implemented in child care centers in Miami-Dade County, Florida, that served children from low-income families. One hundred and sixty-two centers were randomly assigned to one of three research-based curricula or to a control group that continued with its existing program. The curricula, while grounded in a common set of research findings, differed in intensity, pedagogic strategies, and use of technology. In each center, one classroom that served four-year-old children was selected for the study. Teachers and aides assigned to the three treatment groups received initial and follow-up training as well as ongoing mentoring over a period of approximately 18 months, from Fall 2003 to Spring 2005. The study tested two kinds of outcomes: teacher behavior and interactions with children, and aspects of the classroom environment that support children’s language and literacy development, measured through direct observation; and children’s language and pre-literacy skills, measured by their performance on a standardized assessment.
To determine whether the interventions that had produced significant outcomes at the end of preschool had any lasting positive effects on early school performance, mathematics and reading follow-up assessments were done in the spring of the 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 school years. Of the 1,535 children assessed in the original Florida Upgrade study, follow-up measurements were taken on 1,137 children (74 percent). Also obtained were follow-up measurements on 127 children who were in the study centers in the original randomized design, but who were not present at the time of the initial child assessments.

The RAND Center for Population Health and Health Disparities (CPHHD) Data Core Series is composed of a wide selection of analytical measures, encompassing a variety of domains, all derived from a number of disparate data sources. The CPHHD Data Core's central focus is on geographic measures for census tracts, counties, and Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) from two distinct geo-reference points, 1990 and 2000. The current study, Decennial Census Abridged, has two cross-sectional datasets, one longitudinal (interpolated) dataset, and one longitudinal (extrapolated) dataset containing a large number and variety of population and housing characteristics-related measures. These data are summarized at five different geographic levels: tract, county (FIPS), county (Geographic), MSA (Geographic), and state. The following types of measures constructed from the Census Bureau Population and Housing Characteristics data are included in the data for this collection: housing characteristics (stock, quality, ownership, costs, expenditures, occupancy, etc.), crowding (housing and population density), urbanicity, racial and ethnic composition, language, nationality, and citizenship. Further measures cover family/household structure, transportation, educational attainment, labor force, employment status, disabilities, income, poverty, and demographics (e.g., age, gender, and race).

Social Weather Surveys are SWS-initiated national surveys of the general Filipino public. Dating from 1986, initially semi-annual and quarterly since 1992, these surveys are meant to supplement, not duplicate, existing government statistics. They include both core indicators monitored regularly and items on contemporary issues. The minimum sample size is 1,200. A standard Social Weather Survey has two questionnaires, one for the household head and one for a random adult.
The First Quarter 2003 Social Weather Survey was fielded over March 10 - 25, 2003 throughout the country. It used face-to-face interviews of 1,200 respondents divided into random samples of 300 each in Metro Manila, the Balance of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Adults, aged 18 years and older, were asked their views on issues such as economics, politics, crime, education, reading habits, socio-demographic characteristics, and other issues of current public interest in the Philippines. The survey also gathers information from household heads about the members of the household and household characteristics. Demographic variables include sex, age, religion, education, marital status, household composition, language uses, and occupation.

The Survey of Community, Crime, and Health (CCH) was
conducted in 1995 and 1998 in Illinois to examine the relationship
between neighborhood disadvantage and physical and mental health,
(over and above individual socio-economic characteristics), in order
to develop a measure of perceived neighborhood disorder and to explore
its role in explaining that relationship. Interviews were conducted
with 2,482 respondents and covered topics such as physical health,
mental health, health behaviors, use of services, and sense of
control. Also examined were social support, perceived neighborhood
characteristics, neighborhood social support, and personal and
household demographics. In addition to individual-level variables,
Wave I of the CCH contains a number of community-level variables that
were created from the 1990 STF Census data. Variable names starting
with T are tract-level, variables starting with C are county-level,
and variables starting with P are city-level.

the rectangular file, but none of the family records. The household
variables were placed at the beginning of each corresponding person
record. The survey was conducted during the months of April through

This data collection, focusing on the welfare and public
support system, contains information from the SURVEY OF INCOME AND
EDUCATION, 1976 (ICPSR 7634), conducted during the months of April
through July of 1976 by the Department of Health, Education, and
Welfare. The survey served as a supplement to the yearly Current
Population Survey and was conducted to obtain reliable state-by-state
data on the numbers of children in local areas with family incomes
below the federal poverty level. The information was used to
facilitate Title 1 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act by
the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. The survey includes
questions used in the Current Population Survey and also contains
additional exclusive questions covering school enrollment, disability,
health insurance, bilingualism, food stamp recipiency, assets, and
housing costs. The National Chicano Research Network created this
extract by including only those cases for people who received either
of the following types of support: food stamps in 1975 or 1976, public
housing, government rent subsidy, railroad retirement, United States
government SSI, aid to families with dependent children, other public
assistance, Medicaid, veteran's assistance, neighborhood health
center, free or low-cost clinic, other public source, or any public
assistance or welfare the previous month. The 110 variables used from
SURVEY OF INCOME AND EDUCATION, 1976: RECTANGULAR FILE (ICPSR 7919)
were mostly demographic, income-related, and employment-related
variables. The data were provided by the National Chicano Research
Network, which was located at the Survey Research Center of the
Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan.

This annual survey, fielded May to August 2005, was
conducted in 67 countries and the province of Kosovo to solicit public
opinion on social and political issues. Respondents were asked to
identify the most important problem facing the world, how often they
or their family had not had enough to eat in the past year, whether
they had heard of global institutions such as the United Nations and
the European Union, and whether their opinions of these institutions
were positive, negative, or neutral. A series of questions asked
respondents whether their country was governed by the will of the
people, whether its elections were free and fair, whether they trusted
their government, and whether democracy was the best system of
government. Additional topics addressed crime in the respondent's
community, threats to the environment, the gap between the rich and
the poor, and whether immigration was a good or a bad thing for their
country. Other questions asked whether respondents had done any
volunteer work in the past year, and whether they considered
themselves to be religious. Demographic variables include sex, age,
household income, education level, employment status, and religious
preference.
